Even her grandmother let go of the feud in the end and he’s hoping Steffy will come on board with all of it. “I’m going ahead with Brooke and the bedroom line.” He tells her the social media blitz will drop when he and Brooke are in Monte Carlo.

In Li’s office, she asks Katie if she’s accusing her of mishandling Luna’s paternity test. Katie is just wondering if there’s any chance it could be incorrect.

Katie says she keeps getting weird vibes from her like she’s hiding something. Li informs her that the paternity test is correct. “Bill is Luna’s father.”

Katie keeps questioning the paternity test and Li tells her there can be room for error depending who administers them, that’s why she ran it herself. Katie guesses she suspected Poppy the same way she does and she knew she might do something as treacherous as lie and trap Bill into believing he’s Luna’s father.

The paternity test was correct.” Katie frowns.
In the design office, Hope thinks that Steffy wants to keep the feud going. She can’t imagine she’d bow out gracefully to let her and Ridge have a romantic getaway to Monte Carlo alone.

Steffy points out they’re not a lingerie company. Ridge argues that they create beauty. Monte Carlo is the right location and Brooke is the right spokesperson, “And I’m hoping you can support that.” Steffy supports the empowerment of women, but she knows Brooke, and she’s not about empowerment, she’s about herself. Ridge argues she didn’t even want this, he had to convince her. Steffy sighs, “Fine.” He can use her for the bedroom line, “But don’t let her come to Monte Carlo.” Ridge won’t back down. Steffy argues that as co-CEOs they need to support each other. Ridge says they also have to have each other’s back.

In Li’s office, she knows how difficult this must be for Katie. Katie says it is but it’s the territorial vibe that she’s getting from her sister. “Something seems off.” Li scoffs that something always feels off with Penelope, that’s why she went over there to administer the paternity test. It felt like she was up to something, but she was wrong. “She wasn’t lying. Bill is, without a shadow of a doubt, Luna’s father.”
